About the Speaker

Decoding the digital era long before it was fashionable to do so, Ryan Hogarth is always a step ahead of trends. In a world in which 50 billion devices will be connected by 2020, it is incumbent upon companies to transform or become irrelevant. Ryan’s role is to teach businesses how to innovate and function in a ‘frictionless economy’, in which direct, seamless communication is the order of the day.

Renowned for exploring the seismic shift that technology has brought about in the workplace in the past decade, Ryan’s particular focus is on leadership, innovation, influence and motivation.

Driven by an abundance mentality, Ryan sees no limitations as to how much he can achieve. A charismatic speaker (with a memorable beard!), Ryan lights up any event.
